A multi-winner election: the 2016 Social Choice and Welfare Council election

Jean-François Laslier and Tobias Rachidi

This note studies the election of the council of the Social Choice and Welfare society, where 8 seats had to be filled out of 12 candidates, by 63 voters. We compute several voting rules belonging to the class of Generalized Approval Procedures. We also propose a notion of candidate score for such rules, and study the spatial structure of the vote profile.
